yoda12288 Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 Hey everyone , I have a Hulk 181 9.0 white pages but i am interested in trying to trade it for a low grade copy of AF 15 plus maybe some cash. I wanted to know the community's thoughts on this for the long-term . also, what's the best way to go about doing this? Thanks !
Subby1938 Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) If I had AF15 I’d never trade for 181. No offence the Spiderman character is more popular , it’s better book investing wise as 181 is too abundant . I don’t want to come across abrasive I just wouldn’t someone else might low grade 0.5 universal is now around 18K 1.0-1.8 anywhere from 30-38K depending on how nice they look Edited January 2, 2022 by Subby1938 RetiredOldMan and badback83 2

I am super pissed I didn't follow through and trading across a year ago when 1.0s of af 15 were a lot more comparable to a 181 9.0 WP. Thanks for chiming in ! Subby1938 1
PKJ Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 Two different trajectories right now as well. I personally would never do it on the AF15 side but would in a heartbeat on the IH181 side. yoda12288, Albert Thurgood and RetiredOldMan 3
Terry JSA Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) I’m gonna be completely upfront. I don’t think anyone is gonna give you an Amazing Fantasy #15 in exchange for a Hulk #181. Edited January 3, 2022 by Terry JSA jjonahjameson11 and RetiredOldMan 2
KCOComics Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) I think the alternative is to sell your Hulk 181 to help pay for a AF15. Trades are tough to get maximum value and as others mentioned you won't have people lining up to trade an AF15. So I would save as much cash as possible and sell the 181. Ideally, you could wait for the AF15 to cool and the 181 to start climbing again. Though the risk is, AF15 might not stop climbing for a while and you may end up paying more.

texmurphy2099 Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 I have thought about putting up a WTT AF15 for Action 1 low grade! But I feel like everyone would call me crazy!

Spiderman is either the most popular hero of all or tied with Batman. I always said I believe one day we will see AF15 in 2.0 at 100k I know it sounds crazy but that will be cheap compared to say AC1 or TEC27 in 2.0. Sell it to finance AF15 would be your best bet.

texmurphy2099 Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) a nice 6.5 with no chipping ow for 1.0 was (my thought) but I think I'd rather keep the 6.5. a 1.0 has gotta look pretty beat. I dunno! Crazy times! Edited January 3, 2022 by texmurphy2099

I've considered selling my 181 a few times. And maybe I will one day to chase a bigger book. I think I enjoy the memory of getting it more than the book itself at this point. RetiredOldMan 1
fishbone Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 auction it on a no buyer-fee site like CL, and take the credit on your profile and buy your AF15 with said proceeds at the same auction or next one (with no buyer's fee) ...... yes, there is the 10% hit up front, but ..... no way you'll find someone to do this as a straight trade IMO MAY1979, RetiredOldMan, c_mkv and 1 other 4
